Inspiration

What inspires you? For me, it can be anything, but my biggest inspiration comes from life—things that I’ve seen or experienced. In my latest WIP, which I just wrapped up last night, it’s about the WWII big band, brass and sass which, I’ve brought forward into 2012. In this story, my challenge was to make a trumpet player sexy. In order to do that, I had to research songs with trumpet solos, songs that at one time made women swoon.

Where did my inspiration come from? The Army color guard.

And....

Here.

One more for the road.

Have a great weekend!
